Rubber Conversion replaces virgin rubber with recycled rubber Rubber Conversion’s product improves the sustainability of rubber-based products by replacing high-content virgin rubber with recycled counterparts, which directly translates to reduced CO2 emissions.
Project Teaser: EXPO2024by STARTUP AUTOBAHN powered by Plug and Play
in cooperation with the STARTUP AUTOBAHN partner Mercedes-Benz AG
The automotive industry has placed significant focus on sustainable practices, for instance, by implementing various recycled materials in the car. When it comes to recycled rubbers, however, it has been difficult to match the required automotive properties so far. Rubber Conversion has implemented a unique method for recycled rubber, from both pre- and post-consumers that provides automotive-grade performance. This results in a significant reduction of the amount of virgin rubber used in automotive components, enabling CO2 reductions, without sacrificing the performance. This technology was successfully tested on a NHV component for Mercedes-Benz.
